xclipboard layer

Description

xclipboard integration layer.

Features:

  • adds copy support to the X-clipboard from the terminal.
  • adds paste support to the X-clipboard from the terminal.
  • cliphist package: integration with clipboard managers on Linux and macOS.

Requirements

This layer depends on a few platform-specific command-line tools:

  • on macOS, this layer calls pbcopy
  • on Windows, this layer calls clip.exe
  • on GNU/Linux systems, this layer relies on xsel to be available.

Note that xsel might not be installed by default on e.g. Ubuntu systems.

Clipboard manager integration requires Parcellite or ClipIt installed on Linux and Flycut installed on macOS.

Usage

Clipboard Manager Integration

Clipboard manager integration can be enabled by setting xclipboard-enable-cliphist to t.
